Season 6

Channel 4's late-night, post-pub serving of the world's craziest and most creative short films curated and hosted by Zawe Ashton. Featuring brand new talent and experimental work from more established names, the shorts are a heady mixture of music, animation, dance, visual art, spoken word and uncategorisable creative brilliance - a selection for which the phrase 'only on Channel 4...' could have been designed.
